Once upon a time, an eagles egg fell from its nest on the ground, close to few duck eggs. A few days later, when eggs hatched, the duck saw that one of the little birds was different, but she accepted it. So the eagle grew up among the ducks  basically growing up as a duck, she even learnt how to quack. One day the eagle grew up really big, looked up and saw an eagle flying in the sky and said to herself: I wish I could fly, too. This way, the eagle spent her entire life on the ground living as a duck, not knowing she could fly, too.
